"description": "On this episode of Grilling JR, Jim and Conrad look back 33 years at Starrcade 1987: Chi-town Heat, which took place on Thanksgiving - November 26, 1987 from the UIC Pavilion in Chicago, IL. It was the first NWA event to be broadcast on PPV, and not without controversy, as the WWF would run its inaugural Survivor Series PPV event head-to-head that same night. The main event would feature Ric Flair vs. Ron Garvin inside a steel cage for the NWA Championship. Plus, Dusty Rhodes vs. Lex Luger, Arn and Tully vs. The Road Warriors, and much more!",

"description": "Your new Thanksgiving tradition begins right now! It's the return of big time wrestling taking place after your favorite meal of the year! We start with one of the most memorable Starrcades of all time, but was it memorable for the right reasons? Is there any good reason to have a scaffold match? Has a big title match ever ended with an accidental groin hit? How did that UWF/Crockett merger turn out? There will be answers to these questions and more as Tony and Conrad cover, explain, and are sometimes perplexed by this classic event that took place 30 Thanksgivings ago; Starrcade 87, Chi-Town Heat. All this and the craziness and doo-doo talk we expect from our hosts Conrad Thompson and Tony Schiavone on this ground breaking, momentous, and delightful episode of What happened When Monday!",
